Taijiquan (Tai Chi) Relieves Fibromyalgia

After 12 weeks of practicing the ancient Chinese art, fibromyalgia patients had less pain, fatigue and sleeplessness than patients who did stretching exercises and participated in a wellness education program. The tai chi participants in the study were also more likely to remain at improved levels six months later. This is from a study from Tufts University published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
